"Phantasmal" - a play in one act by Mark Lucas
Mon, 23 July 2007, 06:55 pmCast: 3 Female, 1 Male. Farcical comedy for Juniors/Intermediates. (Running time 35 mins)
Precis:
“A play with a little spirit”
Sam, Jarrod and Taylor are spending the night in a supermarket in a bid to be cool but things get decidedly cooler when an unwanted guest makes an ethereal appearance. Why is Annabelle walking around with her foot in a bucket?
Author’s Note:
Phantasmal was another first for me as I had never written theatre for juniors before. In it I attempted to capture the same vitality that was existent in Verve while toning down the style of dialogue to suit a younger cast. I was looking to produce something for younger players that didn’t necessarily involve the doom and gloom so prevalent in works generally produced for this age group.
Winner of 2 awards - 2000.
